anndata - Annotated data

anndata is a Python package for handling annotated data matrices in memory and on disk, positioned between pandas and xarray. anndata offers a broad range of computationally efficient features including, among others, sparse data support, lazy operations, and a PyTorch interface.

anndata is part of the scverse project (website, governance) and is fiscally sponsored by NumFOCUS. Please consider making a tax-deductible donation to help the project pay for developer time, professional services, travel, workshops, and a variety of other needs.

Public API

Our public API is documented in the API section of these docs. We cannot guarantee the stability of our internal APIs, whether it's the location of a function, its arguments, or something else. In other words, we do not officially support (or encourage users to do) something like from anndata._core import AnnData as _core is both not documented and contains a leading underscore. However, we are aware that many users do use these internal APIs and thus encourage them to open an issue or migrate to the public API. That is, if something is missing from our public API as documented, for example a feature you wish to be exported publicly, please open an issue.
